Posted: 2/25/08 at 7:25pmI know that Groff & Lea's Last show is May18th I just got tickets but now I hear that Blake's is that same night. is this true? If so who is going to replace all 3 of them? It's gonna be such an emotional night just with Groff & Lea leaving if u add Blake into that I don't know what's gonna happen I won't be able to get through Left Behind.

The best show on Broadway. I was at the closing. BEST night of my Life.

Posted: 2/25/08 at 7:47pmDidn't Blake just join the cast? Why would he leave so soon?
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention...I'm the good cop, he's the bad cop.

That is definitely the last day of his current contract. I spoke to him on 2/10 and he made it sound as if he hadn't made any decisions. Of course, the writers strike was over two days later, which I'm sure will affect things for him.
I've seen a post on TGO (I think), that claims that Bashoff has confirmed he is leaving...but I do not know the accuracy of that post...but it is right timing for most filming seasons.
No announcements have been made about any of their replacements but they have been auditioning.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

Posted: 2/25/08 at 8:23pmIs there no chance of Groff and/or Lea extending again?

Yes. I sat a few rows behind and you still see everything and it's close to the stage. You'll have no problem.
Broadway Shows I've Seen: Hairspray, Chicago, Little Shop of Horrors (2003), The Wedding Singer, Spamalot, Riverdance, Rent, Beauty and the Beast, Spring Awakening, Wicked, Legally Blonde, Phantom of the Opera, Sweet Charity (revival), Drowsy Chaperone, The Lion King, Dreamgirls(2010 Tour).

Posted: 2/25/08 at 11:20pmI saw Lauren's last show on the 17th. I wish I could get to see Lea and Jonathan's last show though. I'm a thousand percent sure that show will be incredible...if it's possible for it to get any better.

Posted: 2/25/08 at 11:36pmI'll be there. In the last row of the mezz. How bad are those seats?

^ Not bad at all.
I'll be there as well - I'm buying my ticket tomorrow. Going to be a sad day, but I definitely think it's time for them to move on from SPRING AWAKENING.
For all wondering: Lea confirmed that she'll be leaving on May 18th tonight at her concert.

Posted: 2/25/08 at 11:48pmIf it's true for all 3 of them, then what a night that will be!
